I think pretty much EVERYONE who’s ever lived in or adjacent to Baltimore bristled over Trump and Bernie running their fat mouths. I lived barely two miles from the neighborhood they’re referencing for ten years and used to go grocery shopping in Edmondson Village, to the horror of my upper middle class white military…

“Taken for Granted,” a wonderful new book by Gianno Caldwell on how Conservatism can win back

I have an aversion to people kissing me on the mouth without permission should I have to can that if I want to work in politics?

That’s enough Frank

You thank a person for watching a movie so you don’t have to, but have a pre-existing problem with the man and his movies, so why would you watch in the first place?

Steve Jobs was trash.

Heh, it’s always a nihilism trip to read stuff related to Trump tweets.
